For Professor Chad Mirkin, good things come in small packages - specifically one billionth of a meter in size. Yet, as director of Northwestern University's International Institute for Nanotechnology, the impact of Mirkin's work is anything but small. A prolific inventor and entrepreneur, his innovations have the potential to transform the future of medical diagnostics and patient point-of-care and to ignite change across many industries from semi-conductors to healthcare.
Composite materials such as fiberglass, which take on a mix of properties of their constituent compounds, have been around for decades. Now, an MIT materials scientist is taking composites to the nanoscale, where entirely new properties, not found in any of the original compounds, can emerge.
Underscoring its focus on customer collaboration and innovation, SABIC Innovative Plastics has helped a key customer – Karbon Kinetics Ltd. (KKL) – break away from the pack and ride to success with a unique new bicycle that uses high-value Verton* RV00CE specialty compound. KKL’s new Gocycle® electric bicycle – on display here at NPE 2009 in SABIC booth W123011 – is the lightest production electric bicycle in the world.
The lure of fuel cells is the promise to be one of the most ubiquitous products of the 21st century. Fuel cells can compete with batteries, the internal combustion engine and the power grid. Hydrogen can compete with any fuel now produced and cause no pollution but its price is higher than gasoline or natural gas because it is difficult to transport and store. Nanotechnologies will provide the technological keys that enable fuel cells and hydrogen as a fuel to become competitive and commonplace.
NanoSight, manufacturers of unique nanoparticle characterization technology, are happy to report that Kaneo Chiba and Masayoshi Takahashi of Japan’s famous AIST research centre are using nanoparticle tracking analysis (NTA) technology to characterize nanobubbles.
